Alex box by Rankin

Whilst on the dazed and confused website i came across an article about the Alex box by Rankin exhibition launch. On Thursday Rankin hosted a launch party for Alex box in his new Annroy studio and gallery in London, Kentish town. If you want to see more photos and the video of the launch you can here.





"Box is a graduate of Chelsea college of art and has worked with designers such as Gareth Pugh and Karl lagerfeld. This is the first extensive collection and exhibition of her work, which employs various different mediums to merge fantasy, fashion, science and illustration. In this unique collaboration with Rankin she has created a powerful, visually stunning series of images that push the conventional boundaries of her discipline."



The book Alex box by Rankin is available at bookshops now! and the exhibition is at the annroy gallery now until November 23.

Update

Hello lovelies, I'm sorry i haven't posted anything in a while and i kind of started this and forgot about it! but i will be talking about a few things i have bought recently including Chanel vitalumiere foundation which i didn't want to review until i had used it a few times to see how i like it and i have also had a few compliments when wearing it already! i have been really busy with college, starting my hairdressing nvq level 2 is exciting but a lot of hard work so i will have some hair tips and tricks for you all very soon. xoxo

Hair - 1920s

Now if there is one thing i could ramble on about for hours it would have to be vintage hair styles, and i have to confess that I'm completely obsessed. I am still to master the 'finger wave' but i can do the front of my hair so at least that's something! i bought some wave clips from eBay a while ago and they work fine its just getting to the back of your head that's the tricky part, its meant to work best on really short hair but if you want to have a go at trying to do it yourself there are some really handy tips you can check out here. The bob hair cut was really popular, you would always see it on flapper girls in the 1920s and they wore the most amazing cloche hats!

Hello there

My name is Jodie and welcome to the Powder room. I have decided to start this blog as i have been thinking about it for a while now so i thought it was about time i did! I have a passion for make-up, hair and all things beauty related. I'm also an aspiring make-up artist/hair stylist and it would be my ultimate dream to be able to do the things i love in the future. This blog will mainly be about beauty, the things i like and maybe some other little tidbits in between.
